Hi, everyone, I am very pleased to announce a pen notetaking program: hxournal, which is written entirely in haskell using gtk2hs.
I uploaded the package on hackage. This program accompanies with two library packages, xournal-parser and xournal-render for parsing and rendering xournal format file. http://hackage.haskell.org/package/hxournal http://hackage.haskell.org/package/xournal-parser http://hackage.haskell.org/package/xournal-render Installing hxournal should be very simple: > cabal update > cabal install hxournal hxournal can be currently regarded as a clone of xournal, which is a notetaking program developed in C. (See http://xournal.sourceforge.net) As xournal, hxournal can take wacom tablet X11 input in subpixel unit so that it can result in very smooth notetaking experience. Currently, basic pen operations and eraser operations, file open/save operations, rectangular selection, cut/copy/paste operations have been implemented. So the application is semi-usable. The file format is the same as xournal but gunzipped. So to view/edit xoj files generated from xournal, just gunzip the xoj files and read them in hxournal. Gunzipped xoj files generated from hxournal are readable in xournal program. One NEW special feature of hxournal compared with xournal: This program can make a split view (horizontal and vertical and arbitrary combination of them) of the same document similarly to emacs buffers and windows. Please try Horizontal/Vertical Split in View menu of the program. This will be convenient when notetaking a long document. The git repository is located at https://www.github.com/wavewave/hxournal The program web page and development web/wiki pages will be announced soon (it will be linked from package webpage on hackage anyway) and the detailed manual will be presented there. Thank you for your interest. Enjoy haskell notetaking!
